I would much rather see Edwards play small ball 4 and Bradshaw at the 5 than Bradshaw at the 4. That would also get Reeves and Reed on the floor more.Bradshaw is so not a 4.What a joke Cal is.
Ugo & Oscar aren’t back yet, that’s just speculation, and mcgbako is more talented than both of them, he would be a improvement on Livingston, you don’t say no thank you to top 10 recruitsWe have the top-rated big in the upcoming class coming.

Just rumors, and they were born from eligibility concerns. Losing a kid to bad grades is one thing, but this seems a bit different.Still could happen, dillingham is still a guessing game if he ends up at Kentucky
Not if we had several top 10 guys returning for their sophomore year. That’s ideal.What in the world? This board would have several members on Cal's lawn this AM if we lost a top 10 recruit who signed. Is there any info on what happened?
Oh man. I wonder….Here's me reading the tea leaves, IF in fact Mgbako opens his recruitment back up:
Antigua was his lead recruiter, and he took an official visit in October
He's from Roselle Catholic, where Briscoe attended (maybe others as well, MKG?)
Auburn, Memphis, and UCONN were also on his list. UCONN just got Clinigan back, but I haven't seen much about UCONN adding from the portal. Memphis has added 2 small forwards from the portal, even though Mgbako is a PF, still might have an impact - I don't know a ton about who Memphis returns outside of that.
I'm not sure how the Auburn roster looks right now, but they've been very active recruiting in the portal so far and I'm sure they'll try to get involved again.
But for sure, the status of Ugonna and Oscar obviously impact Mgbako's view on UK
Should be noted that he did NOT take an official to Auburn, nor UCONN during HS.
I’m gonna believe dillingham is playing when he actually plays first game, to many issues their, that’s why CALs whole offseason strategy makes no sense to meJust rumors, and they were born from eligibility concerns. Losing a kid to bad grades is one thing, but this seems a bit different.
You don’t want a top 10 recruit who is better than most on the current roster? The top ten guys cal does good with. It’s the 20-75 guys who’s think they are way better than they are that cal struggles withWhy in the world, would you guys want him? We don’t need more freshmen. I don’t care what he’s ranked. You don’t win championships with freshmen. Especially this day in age
Yeah, but there's a problem if he can't play some 4, cause he ain't strong enough to play 5 right now.You know nothing
Letting a 4 win team scare you off from getting a guy is insane
Mgbako is exactly the sort of 4 that would slide in beside Bradshaw at the 5 perfectly. Tough defender, really good rebounder, solid shooter, versatile....
Except they are the ones you need to satisfy, fans on here aren’t even a slight concern (or fans coming to games especially since most don’t follow recruiting enough to know who goes where other than UK). Fans will come/watch either way so the opinion of fans are really null in void even though most think we have more power than we do (zero power since you’ll never see enough leave/stop watching which effects 💰, won’t happen)No offense to bradshaw and his camp but screw that, screw trying to satisfy these camps, it’s Kentucky there are going to be other talented players here if you can’t handle competition than don’t come here, that’s the problem cal got away from competition and having complete rosters, now he tries to get everybody happy and worry about their camps and feelings
I get that to an extent but the man has been short handed and had injuries 3-4 last years and sit here and watched it happen if a top guy become available you don’t sit and watchExcept they are the ones you need to satisfy, fans on here aren’t even a slight concern (or fans coming to games especially since most don’t follow recruiting enough to know who goes where other than UK).

That’s my bet!Nolin Smith recruited him to Duke .. and is now at UofL.... best guess is that is where he ends up
Bradshaw is (or wants to be) a 4, so it wouldn’t bother him.What happens if Oscar and Ugonna come back does Bradshaw say no thanks too?
It's like Livingston thinking he's a 3.Bradshaw is (or wants to be) a 4, so it wouldn’t bother him.
He is a 3/4 tweener, so thinking he is a 3 isn't that far off.It's like Livingston thinking he's a 3.
Maybe.Nolin Smith recruited him to Duke .. and is now at UofL.... best guess is that is where he ends up
Just as long as he doesn’t see anyone in an orange jersey maybe he won’t wet his pantsFlip may not play Center
There's always room for elite talent. May the best man win the playing time through competition.We have the top-rated big in the upcoming class coming. We also will probably get Ugo or Oscar back. There is no room for this guy.
There is a difference between a guy being able to play minutes at a position versus saying you can win a championship with that guy at that position 25 mpg.He is a 3/4 tweener, so thinking he is a 3 isn't that far off.
Now Livingston thinking he's a 2, that's just laughable.
^^^^This^^^^ A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.Ugo & Oscar aren’t back yet, that’s just speculation, and mcgbako is more talented than both of them, he would be a improvement on Livingston, you don’t say no thank you to top 10 recruits
I agree about "bird in the hand...".^^^^This^^^^ A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Lol winning. Players don't care about that nowadays. They care about doing their time (1 year), getting paid and going to the league.Maybe.
But there is a BIG difference in convincing him to go to Duke, and convincing him to go to UL. The NIL would have to be BIG, because he knows he ain't going to win if he goes there.
Cal doesn’t recruit multiple 5 stars for the same position.So we recruited him out of high-school, brought him in for visits but don't want him now? Maybe because we have Edwards but I'd make it work somehow.
Seeing him play with Bradshaw/DJ in AAU, I get why they don't want him with them.So we recruited him out of high-school, brought him in for visits but don't want him now? Maybe because we have Edwards but I'd make it work somehow.
no room for edwards that is clearly better than UgoWe have the top-rated big in the upcoming class coming. We also will probably get Ugo or Oscar back. There is no room for this guy.
ccc does............he can't promise them all playing time & keep their camps happy.....screw winning games for UKUgo & Oscar aren’t back yet, that’s just speculation, and mcgbako is more talented than both of them, he would be a improvement on Livingston, you don’t say no thank you to top 10 recruits
because he knows more than every one else............rememberExactly. This is modern basketball.
You see it.
I see it.
We all see it.
Why doesn’t Cal see it?
